The NEW Magic Mountain

Looking good out there! Hoping for more snow and some terrain expansion

Fun and beautiful afternoon with some nice snow, including some very skiable snow being made. They had 18 guns running on ShowOff and 7 in the beginner area before they started ramping down. Heard they will move to the summit today to get UMC into Medium done. That should also allow some upper mountain natural trails to open for next weekend, more if they can pick up some snow this week. Not huge storms this week but we should get some accumulation.

Nice start to the Magic season.

Cold today and I almost passed. I thought the 2 degree wind chill was inaccurate and then Ullr straightened me out with a maybe 50 mph gust as I headed down Wand. Brought me to a near standstill. The snow is quite good. I enjoyed my runs plenty. At 3 I noticed no one else was skiing. I headed in so they could sweep and shut down the lift. I once had a liftie at Eldora in CO ask me to stop skiing. They had night skiing. He said "Look it's -25, no one else is skiing and I want to go home. "

I forgot to say they were excavating what I suppose was a leak at the base of Showoff. Ugly weather for that. Thanks to the crew.
